GLYCINE: The Most Underrated Amino Acid for Nervous System + Fascia Repair

If you’re anxious, inflamed, tight, wired but tired, You might not need another supplement.
You might just need more glycine.

Here’s why: Image
Image
Glycine = Calm in molecule form

It’s your body’s brake pedal.

It slows down the nervous system, quiets the mind, and helps you sleep deeper than you have in months.

Without it?
Your system is stuck in overdrive. Image
It’s your fascia’s best friend

Fascia is made of collagen and collagen is made 1/3 of glycine.

No glycine → weak collagen → tight, stiff fascia → pain, poor posture, emotional tension.

Glycine brings back fluidity, strength, and flow. Image
It feeds your vagus nerve

Your vagus nerve is the highway of your nervous system, from gut to brain.

Glycine activates it, calms it, restores balance.

It’s like breathwork in amino acid form. Image
It detoxifies your brain + liver

Glycine is a precursor for glutathione, your body’s master antioxidant.

This means less brain fog, faster healing, and less toxic load weighing down your nervous system. Image
It’s a trauma release aid

Somatic work, breath, fascia release all powerful.

But if your system is depleted, your body holds on.

Glycine gives your body the raw material to let go.

I take 6g before bed and 3g into my coffee / tea
It improves sleep, digestion, and insulin sensitivity

Low glycine = poor sleep
Low glycine = blood sugar swings
Low glycine = gut lining damage

Add it back → your body starts to regulate again. Image
It’s the missing piece for fascia + nervous system healing

If you do fascia maneuvers, breathwork, cold exposure, prayer and still feel stuck, you might be missing the internal glue.

Glycine is that glue. Image
I take it every day.

Your jaw is tight because your nervous system doesn’t feel safe.

Most people try to stretch it.
Massage it.
Force it.

That’s why it never lasts.

Here’s what actually works 👇 Image
Your jaw, palate, face, and nervous system are inseparable.

They develop together.
They respond together.
They lock together under stress.

Jaw tension isn’t a jaw problem.
It’s a regulation problem. Image
Inside your mouth is one of the most powerful nervous system access points in the body.

Not the center of the palate.
The sides.

This area connects to:
• the cranial bones
• the jaw
• the vagus nerve
• your breathing pattern Image

WRINKLES ARE NOT A SKIN PROBLEM.
THEY’RE A FASCIA AND NERVOUS SYSTEM PROBLEM.

They are fascia compression + nervous system tone issues.

This thread explains how a simple face fascia release can create a visible lift, clinically and mechanically. Image
Image
Fascia is a continuous connective tissue network.
The face is suspended in it not stacked on bone like Lego.

When fascia dehydrates or tightens, it pulls tissue downward and inward, reducing circulation and lymphatic flow. Image
Chronic facial tension often comes from:

• jaw clenching
• mouth breathing
• stress-induced sympathetic dominance
• dehydration
•lack of minerals
• unresolved emotional holding
• poor cranial motion

This is why “anti-aging” creams rarely work long term. Image

Born via C section? Read this 🧵

Most people think anxiety is psychological.

It often isn’t.

It’s mechanical. Image
Image
When a baby passes through the birth canal, the body experiences a very specific sequence:

pressure → compression → release → breath.

That pressure isn’t random.
It teaches the nervous system how to organize, down-regulate, and exhale. Image
C-sections save lives.
This is not blame.
Sometimes they are absolutely necessary.

But when that pressure sequence is skipped, the body adapts. Image

I didn’t “age better.”
I changed the way my body functions.

Here’s what I did 🧵 Image
Fascia holds tension, trauma, and old patterns.
When you release jaw tightness, decompress the neck, open the ribs, and restore cranial space…
your entire shape changes.
Not cosmetic structural.

Try this to release anger & grief:
Most people live stuck in survival mode.
When you downshift the nervous system and reset the vagus nerve, your face softens, your posture lifts, your eyes clear.
Safety changes your expression.

5 Myths About the Human Body — That My Work Proves Wrong

(THREAD) Image
1️⃣ Myth: “Tension is just tight muscles.”

Truth: What you call “tightness” is stuck fascia holding emotional memory.
When you unwind fascia, you’re not stretching you’re releasing:

• fear
• grief
• anger
• stored survival patterns

That’s why a single solar plexus release can change your whole state.Image
2️⃣ Myth: “Healing takes months or years.”

Truth: The body shifts instantly once you open the right pathway.
I’ve watched people’s:
• digestion
• breath
• posture
• anxiety
• emotional load
change in seconds during one jaw release, tongue pull, or organ reset.
Alignment is immediate when obstruction is gone.

I just completed a 120-hour water-only fast.
No calories. No stimulation.
Just water, breath, prayer, and God.

Here’s what actually happens to the body, mind, and spirit when you go that deep ↓
AUTOPHAGY
Around hour 24–36, your body flips a metabolic switch.

Insulin drops.
Glucagon rises.
Cells begin autophagy, breaking down damaged proteins, scar tissue, dysfunctional mitochondria.

Fasting doesn’t starve your body.
It cleans it. Image
HORMONES & ENERGY
At 48 hours, growth hormone can spike 3–5x.
Why?
Because your body is trying to preserve muscle and repair tissue.

Cortisol rises slightly at first, then crashes down as the nervous system resets.
Your mind gets quieter.
Your breath gets deeper.

This is when you start hearing the things you’ve been avoiding.Image
